Effect of intraventricular administration of vasoactive intestinal polypeptide on body temperature in the rat.
نویسندگان
چکیده
Intracerebroventricular injection of vasoactive intestinal polypeptide (VIP) into rat caused a temporary elevation of body temperature followed by a decrease to below the control level. Hypothermia induced by cholecystokinin octapeptide was abolished by simultaneous administration of VIP. Hypothermia following pentobarbital administration was reduced by successive injections of VIP. The results suggest that multiple interactions of neuropeptides are involved in central thermoregulation.

Effect of an Antagonist of Vasoactive Intestinal Polypeptide on Biological Rhythm of Rest Activity in the Rat
Abstract Vasoactive Intestinal Polypeptide (VIP), has been found in different neurotransmitter systems and exists in various nerve tracts in the brain. Potential role of this peptide in physiological processes such as regulation of sleep and wakefulness, and biological rhythms has been confirmed in several reports. In the present research effects of intracerebroventricular (ICV) injection of a...
متن کاملPreferential binding of vasoactive intestinal polypeptide to basolateral membrane of rat and rabbit enterocytes.
Binding of radioiodinated vasoactive intestinal polypeptide (VIP) to intestinal cell membranes of the rabbit ileum and rat jejunum was investigated. Specific binding of 125I-labeled VIP could be demonstrated only on the basolateral membrane and not on the brush border membrane. This corresponded with the lack of an effect on ion transport when VIP was applied to the mucosal side of an in vitro ...
متن کاملEffect of immunisation against vasoactive intestinal polypeptide on gastric corpus tone and motility in the ferret.
The role of vasoactive intestinal polypeptide in the control of gastric corpus tone and motility was investigated using auto-antibodies to neutralise endogenous vasoactive intestinal polypeptide. Six ferrets were immunised with vasoactive intestinal polypeptide thyroglobulin conjugate in Freund's complete adjuvant which resulted in a significant increase in plasma vasoactive intestinal polypept...
متن کاملChanges in brown adipose tissue metabolism following intraventricular vasoactive intestinal peptide and other gastrointestinal peptides in rats.
The effects of intracerebroventricular (icv) vasoactive intestinal polypeptide (VIP), secretin, glucagon, and cholecystokinin-octapeptide (CCK-8) on the thermoregulatory and cardiovascular systems were studied in conscious rats. The icv injection of VIP at a dose of 10 micrograms produced hyperthermia with an increase in the positive difference between the interscapular brown adipose tissue (BA...
متن کاملEffect of the essential oil of thyme on intestinal morphology in Rat
Background & Aim: Non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) are commonly used in clinical medicine. The adverse effects they produce in the gastrointestinal tract however, often limit their utility. Oxidative stress has been shown to occur in the small intestine in response to the oral administration of indomethacin. In view of this, the effect of thyme essential oil, an agent with anti-o...
